Product Description

Awaken your power and protect the land!

You are the Luminary, the hunted hero who will protect the land from destruction in the latest RPG from the iconic DRAGON QUEST series. With a ragtag band of adventurers, you'll engage in well-balanced, turn-based battles and embark on quests across the kingdom of Erdrea. Forge gear, develop party members' skills, and alter their outfits without changing gear in this edition of the game! This version also lets you ride and attack with monsters on the field to earn experience points, as well as change between HD or 16-bit visuals, symphonic or synth music, and English or Japanese audio. Complete the tale with new character-focused stories, and travel to past DRAGON QUEST worlds!

Across the land, you'll meet the mysterious Tockles-creatures that allow you to visit 2D, 16-bit versions of areas from popular entries in the series like DRAGON QUEST IV and DRAGON QUEST VIII! It's fun to see these classic worlds reimagined in retro style, meshing perfectly with the main game's 2D mode. Like all past DRAGON QUEST games, this one's character designs are based on the signature style of famed artist Akira Toriyama. Paired with the voiced dialogue, the rich personalities of your most loyal companions and fiercest enemies are brought to life, so you can fully immerse yourself in this quest to discover the Luminary's true heritage and awaken your power. For a greater challenge, start the game with the Draconian Quest setting, and capture your favorite moments with Photo Mode!

New to DQ Series a lot of fun
5 Stars
New to DQ Series a lot of fun
I love JRPGs, but I have never played a Dragon Quest game, unusual though that may be. I've played every main Final Fantasy and Tales of game, Persona and tons of others. I love the stuff. I got this and was immediately hooked. The characters are great, the world feels good, and the combat system is good. It doesnt feel too grindy. I put in over 115 hours in 10 days, that should tell you how much I loved it.I have two complaints only:First, the music gets stale, quickly. The music isnt't bad, and it is fully orchestrated, but playing for 120 hours and hearing the same battle music wears on you quickly. The music is *good*, it isn't legendary like the Persona games or Nier. It needs more variety. Thankfully with the free DLC you can switch it to DQVIII music, at least int he overworld, which I found a lot better.Second, and this is a minor complaint, the Secret boss at the end exclusive to the Switch Version is incredibly difficult, and at times felt unfair. It took me a few hours but I managed to defeat it. I don't think most players will reach this however as it requires a lot of play in the post game and sidequests.All in all, this game is amazing value for your money. I recommend it.
Thank you for your feedback

Ótimo jogo, comprem sem medo. Se curte um JRPG e quer fugir um pouco daquelas tramas que querem ser "sizudas demais", pode cair de cabeça nesse título.
Chegou antes do prazo, o que foi ótimo!
